Project Pier upload error: Failed to create folder

I’m evaluating a collaboration/project management web application called Project Pier. So far I like it, but I got a weird upload error when I was testing file uploads. The error read:

Failed to create folder: /var/…xxxx.xxx/httpdocs/uploads/

Error (ERROR_PLATFORM_FAILURE)

I migrated a Menalto Gallery 2 site, and I got this error right away.

Error (ERROR_PLATFORM_FAILURE)

It’s a permissions issue.

The fix:

steve$ chmod -R 777 g2data

Give your g2data folder (could be another name; this is the folder that holds your gallery 2 data) write permissions, and the error should disappear.

TextMate error: Error loading /Library/ScriptingAdditions/ QXPScriptingAdditions.osax/

When posting to my blog via TextMate’s blogging bundle, I’m getting a strange error. The post is successful via xml-rpc, but the error is a bit annoying, if not just a little worrisome.

It didn’t always do this. I’ve noticed it just in the last few days, but it could have been going on for a few weeks without me realizing it.

Mod_Rewrite PHP No Input File Specified

So I launched a site. It was using nice clean rewrites on my dev server (partly local, partly fedora 8). After launching to a godaddy server, i was getting the error: No input file specified.. I knew my redirects/rewrites should have been working.

So, I did some searching, and after (yes, a gruelling 8 minutes), I was beginning to worry that I would have no answer, and would have to construct something very duck-tapish. I really didn’t want to have to do this, because the site needed to be online by 8am. It was currently 1am, and I haven’t slept in a good 20 or so.

So, I finally came across a post on pligg forums. This actually did it. Of course, this fix assumed that my rewrites were working ok, which they were.
